It's Time to Renew !
In order to volunteer in PISD, new and returning volunteers must complete an online application
each year (valid July 1,2009 to June 30, 2010).
Log on to www.pisd.edu,
then click on "Volunteer Application" near the bottom of the
page, or go directly to the application. Follow the prompts
to complete. Click
here for PISD instructions. Keep in
mind that approval generally takes one to two weeks to process.
Volunteers who completed this form for the previous school year
created a User ID and Password. If you do not remember these,
simply click on the appropriate spot on the first screen of the
application to get this information.
If you
have any questions about the process, please contact Debbie Price at volunteers@HightowerPTA.org.

WE CARE
We have added a new method of contacting the
PTA. If you have a comment or question, you can use the We
Care page to send a message.
SCHOOL STORE
Check
out the online ordering capability! A variety of school related items (notepads, pencils, water bottles,
etc.) are offered for purchase.
RECYCLING
Save those old cell phones, eyeglasses, and toner
and ink cartridges.
Hightower will hold a recycling drive during the school year.
It's as easy as dropping them off at the curb with your child in the
morning. Something so simple can make such a huge difference!
